The disclosed apparatus may include a mount component that is mountable to a structural component of a personal mobility vehicle and a dock interface component that is adapted to securely interface with a dock via an interaction between the dock interface component and the dock. The mount component is mountable to any of at least one type of bicycle at a first position and at least one type of scooter at a second position. A docking point of the dock is configured to be interfaceable with any of the at least one type of bike at the first position and the at least one type of scooter at the second position. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Apparatus, systems, and methods for charging personal mobility vehicles via docks

Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods associated with free lock detection of a micromobility vehicle. Data from one or more sensors of the micromobility vehicle may be received and compared to a threshold stored or determined for the micromobility vehicle. Based on the comparing, an indication of free locking the micromobility vehicle may be determined and one or more notifications of the indication may be generated and sent for display on a mobile device. A parking condition of the micromobility vehicle may also be determined, such as utilizing image data of the micromobility vehicle. The image data may be analyzed to determine whether the micromobility vehicle is parked within a designated parking area distinguished through distinct coloring, patterns, signs, placards, markers, or images.

Free lock detection of a micromobility transit vehicle systems and methods

Techniques are disclosed for systems associated with lightweight docking stations for one or more micromobility transit vehicles. The docking station may include multiple racks. Each rack may include a base frame having frame segments, an anchor coupled to and extending vertically from at least one of the frame segments of the base frame, and a lock plate coupled to the anchor and including a lock hole. The lock hole is disposed through the lock plate and is capable of receiving a locking device associated with a micromobility transit vehicle so as to permit locking of the micromobility transit vehicle to the anchor.

Lightweight docking station for micromobility transit vehicles systems and methods

The disclosed apparatus may include a collar for charging a personal mobility vehicle via a dock. In some embodiments, the collar may be fitted with a charging connector that interfaces with a dock that charges the personal mobility vehicle when the personal mobility vehicle is docked. In one embodiment, the collar and a corresponding receiving element in the dock may be shaped such that the collar fits securely in the receiving element without requiring mechanical action by the collar or receiving element and only requiring a user to push the personal mobility vehicle straight into the dock. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods associated with lightweight docking stations for one or more micromobility transit vehicles. The docking station may include one or more racks configured to dock micromobility transit vehicles, a lock hole in a rack plate of the one or more racks, and a base. The lock hole may be configured to align with a respective locking device of each of the one or more micromobility transit vehicles. The base may be configured to elevate the one or more micromobility transit vehicles to align the respective locking device with the lock hole. A method may include identifying at least one rack from the one or more racks is available for docking the one or more micromobility transit vehicles and communicating with a mobile computing device to display an indication of the at least one rack available for docking the one or more micromobility transit vehicles.
